Read moreIt's got 2* and that's lucky, the front end staff get a lot more as the service was great. The food is too much of second quality, so good helpings for big eaters' but wasted. Premium quality and 1/2 portion would be something to consider. The calamaris were supermarket quality and only the body rings, so freezer stuff. I'll prefer fresh and real tentacles with body any time - and primi piatti means appetiser ... Not a plate! The pasta choice ... Cream with carbonara ? Not !!! Carbonara ... Non! Then filetto Di manzo ... Also with grädde ... Who puts cream in a traditional dish ... Who puts cream in carbonara??? Very poor cooking. So a minus 10 for the chef ! But the food was ok - I would not recommend it if you want really good Italian food in Gothenburg, then I don't know Also- after dinner ... We all burp ,right ...?

But nice staff to sell the substandard food of...

Also, their vegetarian dish for lunch was four things that you could have gotten off the salad buffet, only you paid 129 kronor for it. They've gotta up their game with the vegetarian dish. And set up your buffet so that people can use both sides of the table to get around it! But the space is lovely and the staff were nice, despite...
